vegas vandal it appears there might be some truth to it. mythbusters determined it was plausible. the balls acquire more moisture and therefore don't bounce off the bat. now we must determine how the balls are stored in la. ha. bol to all.

Explanation: Since 2002, in an effort to reduce the high frequency of home runs hit in their high-altitude ballpark, the Colorado Rockies baseball team has been storing its baseballs in a climate-controlled humidor. But will a baseball steeped in a humid environment really sail for the fences with less fervor than a dry one? The MythBusters stepped up to the plate and found there may be some truth to this controversial myth. One thing's for sure, storing a baseball in high humidity will cause it to absorb water. This "soak factor" makes humid baseballs heavier, but can it reduce bounce-ability when they connect with a bat? Determining a humid ball's "bounciness" means measuring its coefficient of restitution (COR), which is the time it takes a baseball to regain its shape after being hit. Unfortunately for home-run heavies, the more humid a ball becomes, the lower its COR is. The lower the COR, the slower a ball leaves the bat and the shorter the distance it travels. There are so many variables in baseball hitting — including air pressure, wind speed, temperature and pitch velocity — that it's hard to confirm this myth definitively. |

Ball won't carry even with gas cans pitching. i would be curious as to the actual recorded data on such a subject. can anyone put together stats when humidity was high say over 60 percent with regards to o/u, long balls, etc.?
